[Jave]

GOTW should be Oakland/Vancouver. This will be an EPIC battle. The winner WILL WIN the division. I GUARANTEE IT!

[tarcone]

We plan on burying Georgia. We will end their season Sunday.

[tarcone]

Tulsa is out until Monday evening. We will be traveling to Iowa for my Nieces graduation.

Good luck Jave, I don't really have a clue what to expect, but I agree it should be a battle. If Oakland wins the division is likely theirs, but if we win we'll have only split the series and last years' 2nd half collapse is still fresh in my mind so I won't take anything for granted. CB Stephenson had the game of his career in our first meeting and we need him to play well again. Plus avoid the turnovers of course.

BTW - Shouldn't Donovan be on IR by now?

[CyYoung]

Isssh, back to back tough game for us. I don't get why we're always in these marquee matchups. Good luck Jester

[Mike17]

Gameplanning without Corey Perkins is just depressing

[Matt]

Wife and I took a last min vaca for the weekend. If Suicane can't do the games at the normal time then I will do them when I get back in the afternoon.

[Kobeck]

all good.

[BuddaKINGII]

Ready to kick Schwartz's A!!! Bahahaahah

[Jave]

Is there a lockout? I miss something?

[JesterBlaze]

Just a slight delay folks.

In the meantime why not take a stroll through our art factory?

Which reminds me if anyone wants their art put up there let me know.

[Matt]

I just got home and SUicane and others cannot access the site. seems strange....

[Matt]

I just emailed Suicane again as this appears to be something strange. Sui put a ticket in sometime this morning. Cy Young also had issues getting in an export. THere's likely others.
As of right now, I'm thinking we will be doing the games at 8pm.........IF the site is up for everyone. thanks
